You're older than you've ever been.
And now you're even older.
And now you're even older.
And now you're even older.

You're older than you've ever been.
And now you're even older.
And now you're older still.

Time! Is marching on.
And time, is still marching on.
This day will soon be at an end and now it's even sooner.
And now it's even sooner.
And now it's even sooner.
This day will soon be at an end and now it's even sooner.
And now it's even sooner.
And now it's sooner still.

You're older than you've ever been.
And now you're even older.
And now you're even older.
And now you're even older.

You're older than you've ever been.
And now you're even older.
And now you're older still.

General Commenti've actually got about four versions of this song. there's a rock one, one with horns, and i've got a couple live ones. ANYWAYS: i just want to add that it's amazing how much this song can say without really saying very much.
also: it seems like it's going to build up to something, then it just ends. kind of like a sarcastic joke.

General CommentMy favourite is the Brave New World clip version (with the drums and bass, and guitar). It sounds sinister. The video, as well. It features TMBG in suits, and is filmed entirely in black and white, except for a red timer right next to them.

General CommentFor GefoMutt :
The non Mink Car version is from "Long Tall Weekend", an online-only album released in 1999. It also appears on "Music From Malcolm In The Middle" soundtrack.

Btw, I looove the part when Flansburgh roars :
"Time is marching on,
And time..."
..then there is that silent moment of intense antici...pation followed by the "not-quite-expected" "is still marching on !" conclusion. A hilarious example of playing with the listener's expectations. &:-D
